Best Answer

A star means that the original bill bearing that serial number had a defect and was destroyed. Because bills are printed in large groups it's impractical to reprint specific serial numbers. Instead, a new set of serial numbers is started and a star is added to indicate that these notes are replacements. Collectors generally prefer star notes and it may make the bill be worth a bit more.

What is the value of a one dollar in Silver?

Please post a new question that's less ambiguous. If you mean "what's the value of a silver dollar", include its date and mint mark. If you mean "what's the value of a silver certificate", include its date, the letter (if any) next to the date, and denomination. If you mean "how much is a dollar's worth of silver", Google the words SPOT PRICE SILVER and divide 1 by the price in dollars per ounce to get the number of ounces in $1.


How can you redeem a silver certificate?

If you mean can I get a silver dollar for it from a bank? or a federal reserve? They stopped that in 1969. Late-date silver certificate bills (e.g. 1957 $1 bills) are common among collectors so they rarely sell for much more than face value. However some older ones can be worth more, but you need to know the bill's date, series letter, and denomination to determine its value.
